Eric Carle Collage



This chameleon is inspired by Eric Carle's The Mixed Up Chameleon. Each person in the class created a poster of color. We shared our posters and created collages, similar to Eric Carle's method of creating his artwork. Students could use this to go along with any of his books. The only negative of this project is it is time consuming and messy, although if the teacher is prepared, no student will think this is a bad thing. Teachers could also have the students do an activity like this while learning about animals, space, adjectives, etc. Collages like this are a colorful way to learn about anything!
